I wont do that if I go this route.

Rear lower strut bolts were stuck and neither side would come off.
We put the fronts on and eye aligned it.
Also ordered new bolts so we can cut the old ones off.

Car looks like this right now.

once the rear coils go on ill go get a legit alignment.
It's not slammed either, its a finger gap in the front.



Go buy a torch that's where the fun is.

we're plasma torching it off

We tried using a torch to heat it up in hopes of getting it lose, but that didn't work.
We also had a 400lb impact wrench and a 2 ft breaker bar.
No go :(

haha I know, every day I wake and change my mind of whether i want to modify the car or keep it like it is.



I slight rub on a full turn left or right.
Should be really worried about it? Love the look, but dont want to run it like it is if it is going to kill part of my tires.
Maybe the rubbing will go away after alignment or maybe ill try to raise it a bit :O

Depends if it's rubbing the fender liners or part of the body, you should be fine.

It rubs the fender liner, right in the middle. On a full turn the edge of the tire rubs against it in the middle. <_<
